I've created a package that allows you to create PDFs from
Umbraco using XSL-FO. You can download the package from our.umbraco.org
The video below is a demonstration of the package
I've made some investments in buying the technology to do the
XSL-FO transformation so this will be a commercial package.
Details of how to buy are available here.

I always find that there is nothing like a real project when
learning a technology. I'd spent the last couple of weeks deciding
what would be my proof of concept project, a little afraid to
commit a client to such as breaking piece... the types of
work we do and that obviously impacts the content we serve. From
being a pure services company we now sell some products and as we
provide training for which we need to take bookings.
In performing this technology refresh we'll get... to move forward with what I have and address it as the

I'll aim to write each step of this development up as I work on
it. I'll do my best to use screencasts and screen grabs where

So a little while later than planned I'm taking the next steps
with building the new Ferguson Moriyama site
with Umbraco 5. Since last time I
wrote I've upgraded to Umbraco to the RTM
release, but I've also upgraded the office PC so it is hard to
comment on performance.
This time I'm going to look at adding CSS and JavaScript to my
site and also trying to output some of the site navigation.
Adding some style
I already have the mark-up for my site built so my first step... JavaScript file contains the word
Umbraco - as a pedant I'd prefer that my site didn't
reveal the technology that was powering it. This happens as the
Scripts tree maps to ~/Scripts/Umbraco - I hope there is a
way around this.
I copy some images

After several months waiting for approval the Intro website is live.
Umbraco feeds XML to a flash front end build by
web maestro Rich Salter.
Site design was done internally by Intro.
Believe it or not, despite all of my interest in Umbraco, this

My list of archived content by month in the right hand side
navigation of this page was getting a little long. The following
jQuery script replaces the un-ordered list with a select input
which takes up much less page real estate.
The page still looks the same to any passing search engines
though.
var archiveContent = '';
$("li[class='archive']").each(function() {
archiveContent += '<option value="'+$('a:first', this).attr('href')
+'">'+$('a:first', this).html()+'</option>\n';
$(this).remove();
});
archiveContent = '<li>\n<form id="archiveForm"><select
